The Audio-Technica AT5047 Premium Studio Condenser Microphone is a premier side-address studio microphone designed for capturing the expressive character of both vocals and instruments. This condenser microphone features an exceptionally wide dynamic range, allowing it to accurately reproduce sound sources ranging from delicate drum brushes to high-SPL vocal performances.
The AT5047 utilizes a unique four-part rectangular element consisting of four matched, ultra-thin 2-micron diaphragms. These components function together to provide a combined surface area twice that of a standard one-inch circular diaphragm. This design achieves Audio-Technica’s largest-ever element, resulting in extremely low noise and exceptional transient response.
A transformer-coupled output allows the AT5047 to maintain a constant load output impedance. This stability ensures a consistent relationship between the microphone and various mic preamps or console inputs, even when capturing sources at extreme sound pressure levels. The internal circuitry utilizes discrete components carefully selected and optimized to maximize compatibility and performance with professional recording hardware.
Each AT5047 microphone is hand-assembled and individually inspected to guarantee 100% quality control. The housing features an elegant and durable construction of aluminum and brass. To ensure audio clarity, advanced internal shock mounting decouples the capsule from the microphone body, minimizing the transmission of handling noise.
The AT5047 comes equipped with professional-grade accessories for immediate studio integration. The included custom AT8480 shock mount provides superior isolation from external vibrations. For protection during storage and transport, the microphone includes a custom hard-shell carrying case with dedicated die-cut foam compartments.
